Before the DAYS of science and statistics
II was very well known that the char
acter of a mans work and the conditions
under which he has to labor make a real
difference in the length of life to which he
may fairly look forward. But in spite of
the increased attention paid to subjects of
this kind during the last few years, very
few people really recognize how powerful
for good and evil these influences are,
and they will be astounded at the figures
contained in the paper read by Mr.. Hum
phreN before the Statistical society. The
results of his Investigations went to show

so the rate among the clergy is only a
little more than kalf, or 55.
Passing to the other extreme we find
that the mortality is heaviest among
servants employed in inns and hotels, the
proportional rate upon them standing at
geo. Four of them die for one in the
class above, and though late hours, hurry
and excitement, and the temptations to
excess which beset them might well have

agricultural laborers come next in health

a wide gap, the death rate among them
standing at 20, as compared with 1873
among the miners of Cornwall, while
London laborers suffer more severely
still. We are lessening the unhealthi-
ness Of the country year by year,
but our success is clearly unequal. With
some callings and occupations it is hope
less to look for any great improvement,
but in most something ought to be lone

o spirit OF the summer time
Bring back the roses to the dells,
The swallow from her distant cline,
The honey bee from drowsy cells.
Bring back the friendship OF the sun,
The gilded evenings calm and late,
When merry children homeward run, ,
And peeping stars bid lovers wait.
Bring back the singing and the scent
Of meadow lands at dewy prime; :

THE KILLING AT CORONADO
NOTHING MORE THAN A DRUHK-

Between the sports. Who Wanted 70

DENVER, Col, March 2-It appears
that the killing at Coronado, KS, on
Monday, over the county seat, did not
occur in Wallace county, as at first re-
ported. A telegram from Wallace to
the Associated Press this afternoon
says: Sunday last a bloody ARRAY took
place at Coronado, Wichita county. 1t
grew out of the county seat trouble
existing there. On that day seven
men, Charles Coulter, Bill Rayner,
Frank Jennees, George Emo, Watkins,
Emmett, Dunning, A. N. Borrey and
Johnson, left Leots aud went to Cor
onado, some of them to havs fun and
the others to zee it. Three OF them
were armed. They took bser with
them and after arriving there pro-
ceeded to drink with some Of the
Coronado boys. They soon quarreled
and Coulter and one Loom drew
their reyolvers and began shooting.
This was he signal for the war to be-
gin, and the Coronado men opened on
The Leota crowd from windows aud
secluded places. Coulter, Rsyner and
Loomis fell, the frst two dead and the
last with leg aud an arm broken.
The Coronado fellows then turned on
the other Leota men, who had got in
their bugSies and we're fleeing for
their lives. Winchesters were used
freely and three Of the Leota men were
shot out Of the buggy. The horses were

The bodies of Gutter and Watkins
were brought to Wallace last night
and taken East for burial. Watkins
was married and his body was accom-
panied by his wife. They were from

TIE KAIGaIS OF LABOR
REJOICING OVER CARDINAL Glib
BONS'S REPORT
To Pope Leo as 10 the Aims and
Standi0g Of the Order
What Is Expected.

NEw YORK, March 2-Cardinal Gia-
bons' favorable report to Pope Leo as
to the aims and standing of the
Knights of Lator, set forth in cable
dispatches from Rome, was received
with much rejo cling by the Knights
in this city. 1t had heen thought by
many OF the leading Knights that the
McGlynn controversy and the attacks
made by Henry George on the church
would have piejudiced the authori-
ties at Rome against the order, and
this fear was aggravated by the fact
that Cardinal Taschersu, who sailed
in company with tie American
Cardinal, had announced his
intention Of endeavoring to il fiuence
Rome through it in his fight with the
Canadian knights. The position taken
by Cardinal Gibbons, they say, will
settle the whole mat er. He is an es-
pecial favoiite with the Pope, and his
advice as to the treatment of any mat
ter in which the United States is con.
cerned will, it is declared, be taken as
1t is given. In addition, B shop Kesne,
of Richmond, and Bishop Ire
land, Cf ST.. Paul, who are both friend
ly to the Kn gh's, and who are
recognized at RJme as representing
the more progressive element in TIE
American hierarchy, are with Cardi-
nal Gibbons to support him in the
noeition which he takes. Cardinal
Gibbons is in a position to speak more
intelligently OF the principles Of the
Knights than any other churchmsn.
Before leaving for r me he carefully
examined the manual of the order.
He also held a long conference with
Master Wora man Powderly, whom he
regsrded ss a devoul aud conservative
His present position is the
result of investigatIon. 1t is said
in clerical circles that the Knights
had powerful enemies within the
Vatican. Many of The Cardinals
thought the order to be OF a character
simia to the secret societies of I.aly
and Spain and opposed it for that
reason. This report Of Cardinal Glib
bons's has no bearing whatever on the
McGlynn case, nor will its indorse-
ment by the Pope carry witA it any
thing more than an approval of the
general plan of the order. Ia any
diocese where branch of the order
may develop dangerous tendencies.
Lhe local Bishop will still have the
power to deal with it.

was the principal witness before the

to the meeting at BreDham because
he was in favor of law and order, and

against any resort to mob law. One

There was great dssatisfac ion with
the Republican administration aud
threats had been repeatedly made to
prosecute the officials. He thought
that the unpopulsrity Of the memorial
lists was not due to their Re-
publican views, but to the
fact that they manipulated the colored
vote and placed incompetent men in
office. He said the reputation OF the
memorialists was bad; that they were
Republicans for revenue only, and
that when they filled OF success in
1884 their occupation was gone, and
having lost their prestige they wanted
to leave. 1t was his opiuion that they
desired to pose as martyrs before the
country, and be able to secure recog-
nilion in case of the ascendancy OF the
party. The reason the
people had not II bsled before was be.
cause they were peaceable and law OBJ
